Mechanical Keyboard Club!

[prodigydoo]

I have a CM Storm Quickfire Rapid With blue switches.

 

I had a backlit membrane keyboard previously and I really missed having the nice visibility at night so I stuck 3 LEDs to the back of the keyboard and angled them pointing across the entire keyboard to get my visibility back ;)

(It was running automatically from an arduino wheneverit got dark, but I had to use the arduino elsewhere so i have no pics in action)

Yeah he did but he lives in Germany.  I just got that one a couple weeks ago and I like it.  The white chassis is a nice touch.

Didn't notice your board's keys  :( sawwy

/e I ordered one yesterday, I figured that'd be safer than attempting an LED mod on my antique boards :p

Total noob here I actually haven't used one yet but I will have mine at my doorstep Monday afternoon corsair K95.

[SirReallySam]

I hope to join the master race as well, awaiting the result of my bid for a Lexmark Model M from 1993.....

So how did it go? or has the bid not finnished yet?

Made the jump myself to mechanical. CMStorm Quick Fire Rapid Cherry MX Reds

Good choice mate! I myself have the board as well however with Blues and it feels like a charm.

I don't have anything flashy. I own a Steelseries 6gv2

Doesn't matter, as long as it's a mech, you're part of the brotherhood. B)   And FYI, Filco makes rather drab looking mechanical KB's, yet they are acknowledged to have very good mech KB's, likewise, I believe Steelseries make excellent MK as well.

Nice member title for you mate :D

[UselessBread]

Hi. Am I welcome?

I'll admit. It is kind of dirty and needs to be cleaned.

[GamerDude]

Alright! Just collected my Lexmark Model M and Storm Trigger Cherry Green, and I'm typing this message with the Model M and it is LOUD! But since I have my room all to myself, I'm loving the old skool buckling spring and the noise it makes.  It is heavy, much heavier than the Green and black I have, more like Cherry Clear.....but heavier.I will be back with some pics.....

[EddieyPoo]

Awesome post man!!! I live in South Korea and there are lots of Asian brand mechanical keyboards here such as Ducky, Filco, and Leopold. For my first mechanical keyboard I got myself the plain jane Filco Majestouch 2 with Cherry MX Blue switches. Love the build quality and the switches:))))

Pics of the Storm Trigger has been posted, so I'm not going to do that, just one pic of the Cherry Green switch below the key caps-

 

Now, my long awaited Model M, had to wait for it, but finally, it's mine, had to buy an adapter for the supplied AT connector with a female AT -> PS/2 adapter, works pretty well. The unit is in very good condition,

As you can see below, the key caps are in excellent condition, I don't think I need to do anything other than wiping them with some antiseptic solution.

I did consider that, but the condition of the key caps, and the chassis itself screams, "Don't touch me!" I'll leave it alone for now, anyway, I'm using it right now as I type this message, it makes a hella noise, but it kind of takes me back to the days when most KB's made a ruckus......feeling so nostalgic now.

I just got a new Shine 2 from the Ducky booth at Computex. They were doing a giveaway event and I got a lucky draw! :D

This comes with Cherry MX black switches with blue LED lights. Pretty awesome! :D

AWESOME! Enjoy it dude! B)  Some don't like Black switch, I for one like it. Just tried a few rounds of UT3 with my Model M, quite satisfying experience as it handles games pretty well, though I do admit my fingers are a little tired pressing the pretty heavy keys. Odd, I find myself liking just about every freaking mech KB's I've tried..... :blink:

When DS III makes its debut, I'll have even more poison for you! ;)  Targetting a Year Of The Snake and a full sized DS III.....haven't decided on switch types and back light colors yet.

I've got a Razer Black Widow Ultimate 2013 with cherry mx blue switches and a Corsair K95 with cherry mx red switches.

[Mastermortis]

I am currently using a black widow ultimate 2013 and I love it the feel of the blues are great and the loud clicking is perfectly fine for me if I had to complain about any thing is the keys are slightly smaller then normal boards
